This price hike/reset is completely without warrant. Wholesale prices fell 6 cents yesterday, and are down at this time for today.

Most likely, Speedway is getting greedy and trying to restore the money it didn’t make when they were forced to sell under $3. (Remember me saying that I expected a rise to 3.05-3.15?) Because they were “forced” (by themselves) to hold under $3, they didn’t make as much profit, so now that prices on the wholesale market are lower, they are attempting to recoup that money!

Don’t expect the hike to last long. Prices should come back down reasonably fast.

The name of the site is based off an essay Ed wrote for the Grand Rapids Press titled "The Gas Game". The current website was established later by Patrick DeHaan after he and Ed predicted gas price hikes on GasBuddy's website GrandRapidsGasPrices.com, as well as Ed’s personal web page.

Note: To be precise, add 9/10 of a cent to all prices described on this web page.
